Cautionary Note and Disclaimer
This presentation contains certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, contained in this presentation, including, without limitation, statements regarding the potential advantages of our computational platform, our research and development efforts for our proprietary drug discovery programs and our platform, the initiation, timing, progress, and results of our proprietary drug discovery programs and the drug discovery programs of our collaborators, the clinical potential and favorable properties of our molecules, including SGR-1505,SGR-2921 and SGR-3515, and other compounds discovered with our platform, the timing of potential IND applications as well as initiation of clinical trials for our proprietary drug discovery programs, the clinical potential and favorable properties of our collaborators' product candidates, including Nimbus Therapeutics and Morphic Holding, our ability to realize milestones, royalties, and other payments from our collaborative and proprietary programs, including our ability to realize returns on any of our investments in the companies we collaborate with, our plans to discover and develop product candidates and to maximize their commercial potential by advancing such product candidates ourselves or in collaboration with others, our plans to leverage the synergies between our businesses, our expectations regarding our ability to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements with our existing cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, and our expectations related to the key drivers of our performance, are forward-looking statements. The words "aim," "anticipate," "believe," "contemplate," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "goal," "intend," "may," "might," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," "target," "will," "would" or the negative of these words or other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.
These forward-looking statements reflect our current views about our plans, intentions, expectations, strategies and prospects, which are based on the information currently available to us and on assumptions we have made. Actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements and are subject to a variety of assumptions, uncertainties, risks and important factors that are beyond our control, including the demand for our software solutions, the reliance upon our third-party drug discovery collaborators, the uncertainties inherent in drug development and commercialization, such as the conduct of research activities and the timing of and our ability to initiate and complete preclinical studies and clinical trials, uncertainties associated with the regulatory review of clinical trials and applications for marketing approvals, and other risks detailed under the caption "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in our Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings and reports, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2024, as well as future filings and reports by us. Any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation speak only as of the date hereof. Except as required by law, we undertake no duty or obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation as a result of new information, future events, changes in expectations or otherwise.
This presentation includes statistical and other industry and market data that we obtained from industry publications and research, surveys, and studies conducted by third parties as well as our own estimates of potential market opportunities. All of the market data used in this presentation involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such data. We have not independently verified such third-party data, and we undertake no obligation to update such data after the date of this presentation.

Designing Drugs Is a Challenging Multi-Parameter Optimization Problem
Need to identify a molecule that balances many anti-correlated properties:
Potency
Selectivity
Solubility
Bioavailability
Clearance / Half-life
Permeability
Drug-drug interactions
Synthesizability

Vision for the Future of Drug Discovery
If all properties can be calculated with perfect accuracy, designing drugs would have a much higher success rate, be much faster and cheaper, and would produce much higher-quality molecules.
